ASDACS Applied Statistics and Data Analysis are areas that include a vast num= ber of techniques developed in Computer Science such as numerical anal= ysis, database methodology, computer graphics, software engineering an= d human-computer interface. A research, based on a certain theory rega= rding the topic under investigation, can propose some statements or hy= pothesis about the reasons of certain behaviour. The next step consist= s in testing some predictions with suitable experiments where several = questions must be answered in order to obtain data. Depending on the o= utcomes of the experiment, the theory on which the hypotheses and pred= ictions were based will be supported or not. By the nature of this lin= e of scientific investigation the statistical methods assumes a major = importance to determining the validity of empirical research. It is al= so important to quantify findings and present them with appropriate in= dicators of measurement.

Applied Statistics and Da= ta Analysis are areas that include a vast number of techniques develop= ed in Computer Science such as numerical analysis, database methodolog= y, computer graphics, software engineering and human-computer interfac= e. A research, based on a certain theory regarding the topic under inv= estigation, can propose some statements or hypothesis about the reason= s of certain behaviour. The next step consists in testing some predict= ions with suitable experiments where several questions must be answere= d in order to obtain data. Depending on the outcomes of the experiment= , the theory on which the hypotheses and predictions were based will b= e supported or not. By the nature of this line of scientific investiga= tion the statistical methods assumes a major importance to determining= the validity of empirical research. It is also important to quantify = findings and present them with appropriate indicators of measurement. = Several areas such as Medicine, Therapies, Biochemical Technology, Eng= ineering and Economics relate Statistical Knowledge and Computer Scien= ce in order to analyse data obtained in the context of empirical resea= rch. This workshop will provide researchers and practitioners a forum = for exchanging ideas, experiences, problems understanding and visions = for the future. The workshop will also provide a platform for research= ers and developers to present results using the available tools and so= ftware packages for data analysis and to identify the problems in the = theory and practice of empirical research recognizing future developme= nts.

Workshop on Internet of Things =96 IoT

Internet of Things (IoT) = only take off if combined with cloud computing and with a big =93mount= ain=94 of sensors and actuators embedded in the environment able to co= llect, monitor and transfer data from real objects to databases or cac= hes and vice-versa. This huge quantity of information generated by sen= sors, or targeted at actuators, should be streamed to any number of de= vices and services just in time. This means that there will be a lot o= f data navigating in the network infrastructure that needs to be promp= tly processed so that operators and companies can ensure that informat= ion is always updated. Also, privacy and security issues must be prope= rly addressed. The cloud computing can help to handle massive volumes = of data while remaining accessible from anywhere for any device. Infor= mation can be extracted from massive data using Big Data and Cloud tec= hnologies, in a secure and safe way, and clouding is one technology ca= pable of handling this data and delivering in real time. The Internet = of Things is becoming a reality, however it still has some way to go b= efore it reaches maturity, but is getting there and cloud computing wi= ll certainly be one driver force to get there. The Workshop will prima= rily focus on IoT enabling technologies that advance the research in t= he area of Internet of Things.
